For the next few days, I'll be on a trip for a travel story to Virginia and DC's wine country. I flew out this morning. I came prepared with my flying essentials: Great book (in this case, it was Go Set A Watchman), caffeine in the form of tea, and a sweater. Because planes are freezing. … Continue reading Virginia is for Lovers

Food For Thought
Last night I had the pleasure of attending an event in Charlotte all about food and how it shapes community. The event was the second course of #SkylineCLT. It consisted of a moderated talk hosted by John T. Edge discussing the role of food in the community, and the burgeoning Charlotte food scene. The event … Continue reading Food For Thought
July Issue—Heat Wave
http://issuu.com/katiecoleman/docs/lnmjuly2015?e=12815454/13692199 I have to say, the July issue of LNM is one of my favorites. We tried a few new things, including an entire fashion shoot on a sailboat, behind the scenes video, and a major feature that took more work than I had anticipated. Take a look at how it all turned out! For … Continue reading July Issue—Heat Wave
Review-The Line (Spoilers)
"The Line" by J.D. North is a pleasant book that keeps you guessing, even though you think you know how it's all going to end. The story moves quickly and doesn't dwell on insignificant points. Everything in the book is there for a reason, to drive the story. For the most part, the writing in … Continue reading Review-The Line (Spoilers)
Happy New Year!
Last night (well, 4 am this morning) I finished "The Line." This is definitely my favorite book that I've read for this blog so far. It had a likable and new protagonist, a plot with no holes that I noticed, and the language was deliberate and well thought-out. In the final few chapter, the author … Continue reading Happy New Year!
Hot Tea and a Good Read
I'm not sure if there's anything better than hot tea and a good book on a cold and rainy day. Yesterday I started "The Line" by J.D. Horn and I'm already more than halfway done. And it's not that there weren't other things I could have been doing, like sleeping. This really is one … Continue reading Hot Tea and a Good Read
Back to Work
I hope everyone has had a fantastic holiday season! I'm finally back in Charlotte after visiting with my parents and family for a week in my hometown. I was completely swamped with last-minute shopping, wrapping, and hours upon hours of cooking. For full look at how that went (and for a peek at what … Continue reading Back to Work
Christmas Wish
I've decided that my Christmas wish this year is to actually finish this book. Seriously, I never have an issue finishing a novel. I think this is going so slow because it's just so fact-laden and really isn't something I would pick up on my own. That's not … Continue reading Christmas Wish
Progress…
I'm still working on getting through "Nothing Finer." It's going, and we're finally getting to a few names I recognize. I'm currently still in the second section on baseball, so, of course, Babe ruth showed up. I do like learning about the historical aspects of the game, and the inserted quotes from old newspaper accounts. … Continue reading Progress…
Catching Up
It has been quite a busy week! I finished the first book for this blog (yay!), finished two magazines last week, discovered the banker winter uniform (dark blue suit, white shirt, Carolina blue tie, brown leather shoes), started a book that I'm reviewing for my magazine, and went to a Christmas … Continue reading Catching Up
